as some of you may allready know im a complete noob  and not so bright in understanding all the slang and abbreviations regarding growing ( please make reply simple and to the point ) 

 so,  i need answers really to what to buy , im using 10 pot x 6 litre wilma hydro system inside a 1.5x1.5 tent , under 2 x 600 viperspctre LED full spectrum autos .  growing white widow from dinafem. 

 

i have allready bought: 

1.  inside fan, 

2.  clay balls 

3.  carbon filter extractor fan with ducting

4.  1.5 x 1.5   indoor tent

5.  wilma 10 pot x 6 litre

6.  10 x white widow seeds from dinafem

 

i may grow using only clay balls or i may go with coco or i may go with clay balls at bottom & coco  ( please advise for easiest grow & yield ) 

 

so,   what else is essential ?  what do i now need to get to start ?      want to get on the road now !!  

 

cheers ......your input is very very much appreciated guys !!

You will need something to start the seeds in like rock wool cubes or root riots so they have a chance to establish a root system before you put them in the Wilma system.

 

good luck!

 

peace.

Nutrition, which is feed, 

temperature humidity sensor with min/max recording,a

ec & ph meter,(depending on Nutes)

circulation fan,(s)

intake fan,filter,

Heat mats/tubes,

hi

   ive been told countless times on here that 2x600w is more than enough light in a 1.5x1.5 tent

@skorpio777 i was talking about heat source not lighting.. you may need a oil rad to keep ur temps up during lights off?

 

  under LED so not much heat from them anyways, im growing in an upstairs apartment and its allways warm.   but if need be to keep temps up do i put the oil radiator inside the tent ?   or outside or does it even really matter ?   

cheers

I would get a cheap thermometer with a probe sensor. U can get them off the auction sites for under a 5er. Stick that in ur medium so it will give u a more accurate temp reading of ur roots. Without a blanket my root temps are usually quite alot lower than my ambient temps. With the electric blanket the root temps are always stable. There are tons of options to keep ur roots warm. U want to be aiming for around 20-23c but dont quote me on that lol
